Why Isn't Every Diamond Certificated?

Why Isn't Every Diamond Certificated?Diamond grading laboratories charge fees for their work, so its only worth paying for larger or better diamonds to be certificated. The extra cost needs to be weighed against the fact that the diamond should be easier to sell. Also many customers prefer to see a complete ring rather than a selection of loose diamonds. There is however a far more practical reason why most jewelers are reluctant to get involved in promoting graded diamonds, they need to protect their profits margins, and certificated diamonds would make it easier to shop around.
Easier to Comparison ShopWe welcome comparison shopping because we don't have the high overheads of High Street retail shops, and our prices can be much lower and more competitive than traditional jewellery retailers. Ideal for SolitairesBuying unmounted certificated diamonds is a good way to buy an important diamond for a solitaire ring or pendant, but it's not quite so easy when it comes down to finding a pair of diamonds for ear-rings, or a number of matching stones for a cluster or eternity ring.
